% dear Takely,
Your letter P 3948/25 of the 24th about people con-
victed before the Mixed Court at Addis Ababa. I don’t
think that formal official correspondence is a very good
metnod of discussing a point of law, so I am writing to
you to give my views on the point you raise; perhaps you
would submit them to sir 3. Chamier,if, as I imagine, it
is his opinion which is embodied in your letter, and, if
.^6 w^uld like me to come across and discuss the point wit
n±..i, I am entirely at his disposal.
x confess triac I had some qualms about using the
Foreign Jurisdiction Act in the case of persons convicted
before That is, I suppose, really an Abyssinian tribunal,
but iu certainly never occurred to me that the course pro
posed was open to the objection taken in your letter that
Section 8 'does not seem to authorise the making of an
order for removal in custody to another country but only
bo autnorise detention for the purposes of such an order
